Show me your wheels!

octaviarsman · 12-02-2007, 11:37

I'm in the market for some new wheels for the RS - sick of the current ones!

If you have any after market wheels could you post them up on your car?

cheers

Ebay probably!

vimto2000 · 12-02-2007, 12:03

Make sure you let us all know when you do that! I really like the Zeniths. Do you have a full size spares? I was thinking about after markets ie the new RS4's, but not keen on replica's as heard bad things. (sorry for going off topic)

They all came with Steelies IIRC

Not a vRS Im afraid, but here is my Octy II Elegance with some 17" Audi S-line alloys on....

octaviarsman · 12-02-2007, 12:52

Do all audi wheels fit? or reps? I quite like the wheels on my father in laws new audi A4 S-line SE with the multi spokes

Does anyone know of a good rep website?

I got some reps for my BMW M3 a few years ago and i have no complaints - just kept them clean and free from prolonged dirt.

Here are some pics of my dealer's vRS TDI demonstrator with (dealer fit) B14 wheels. They are 18" x 8J and £180 inc VAT each. They have a high gloss sort of smoked glass finish to them that is classier than plain silver; I've ordered a set on my new vRS.

If you want to go the LIGHT route you could try Team Dynamics Pro Race 2 or Pro Race 1.2 OR the fantastic OZ Racing Superturismo or Ultraleggera. Each of these wheels is in the range of being only 9kg to 12kg per wheel.

I still go weak at the knees thinking of these on an OctyII vRS......................

Makefish · 12-02-2007, 14:50

............or these from the VW Phaeton (19" Helios) seen here on a Jetta.................

They look FANTASTIC!!!

You could lower it too with some Eibachs. Sits a bit high

octaviarsman · 12-02-2007, 15:34

Im liking so far! post more eye candy!

andy2407 · 12-02-2007, 19:09

This is a link that Makefish posted when I was looking for alloys. Its of after-market alloys on Golf MK V's, but these are the same fitting as the Octy II, so should give some more inspiration....

You have to be carefull as though the stud pattern is the same the offset isnt, meaning the wheels can stick out further than they should.

If they have I'd like to know how!

Unfortunately they shouldn't fit as Fabia has 5 x 100PCD and Octavia II has 5 x 112PCD.

Don't yet know about the new Fabia II; this may possibly be 5 x 112PCD.
